Why BMW doesn't use this V12 in a supercar is beyond me. The engine alone would sell the car... ::

personally i think this is the reason BMW is losing it's luster, especially the REAL M Cars.

Can't say it's a bad business decision by the execs at BMW because they are selling more cars, but for the true enthusiasts, it makes nothing unique about having a real M Car when every other car has M Stamps all over it. I think it's so cheesy.

If the car drives well I don't care what the name is. There's no point in continuously complaining about names of the cars at this point.

Save the energy and judge the car for what it is not the name

bmw always had M535i M135i and so on just wasn't sold in US until now. the first M division car sold to public (not in US) is E28 M535i back in 1986, they are true enthusiast car just like M car cost far less them M cars in some country.

Cool video! I love how they say "exclusive" as if the letter M isn't plastered on every single car they make now

It's very cheesy in parts. Who wouldn't want that neon sign in their garage?

They really need to build an M7 and stop all of this ridiculous teasing.

Put the M back into M on a serious scale.
